ON COURSE BETTING & HOW TO READ THE RACECARD

WAYS TO BET

WIN ONLY The most common form of bet. You win if your horse is first past the post. Example: £5 win at 8/1 would return £45 (8 x £5 = £40 + £5 stake)

EACH WAY Backing a horse to win or be placed. This doubles your bet – for example: £5 each way = £5 to win and £5 for a place = £10 total stake

STANDARD EACH WAY TERMS

In conjunction with The RCA, the bookmakers have introduced standard each-way terms Bookmakers will provide these terms, or better, when offering each-way betting.

• Fewer than 4 runners - all on to win

• 5 – 7 runners (inclusive) – 1/4 odds a place 1,2

• 8 or more runners – 1/5 odds a place 1,2,3

• Handicaps with 12 to 15 runners (inclusive) – 1/4 odds a place 1,2,3

• Handicaps with 16 to 21 runners (inclusive) – 1/5 odds a place 1,2,3,4

• Handicaps with 22 or more runners – 1/4 odds a place 1,2,3,4

Some bookmakers also offer ‘betting without the favourite’, where you can back your selection at reduced odds to either win or finish second to the horse nominated by the bookmaker as favourite. You may bet with confidence with any bookmaker on course as they operate with Administration Of Gambling On Tracks Ltd. (AGT) approval. In the unlikely event of a dispute with a bookmaker, please call upon the assistance of the AGT Betting Ring Manager, who can be found on the ground floor of the Grandstand Enclosure. The AGT also offers a ‘late pay ’ service in case the bookmaker leaves the course before you have collected your winnings. Late pay claims should be sent to: AGT, 3A Kings Hall, Parsons Green, St Ives, Cambridgeshire, PE27 4WY.

PLACING A BET

Experiencing the buzz of the betting ring may be a little daunting at first, but you will soon find it is very easy to place a bet. Here are some guidelines for racegoers to follow:

1. Each bookmaker will be offering slightly different prices, so shop around for the best odds against your selection

2. Call your bet clearly to the bookmaker by stating the name and / or number of your chosen horse and the stake

3. Listen to the bookmaker repeat your bet to his / her clerk and correct him immediately if any details are called wrongly

4. Make sure you obtain a ticket from the bookmaker and keep it safe

5. If your selection wins, hand the ticket back to the bookmaker for settlement. Never destroy or dispose of your ticket until after the “Weighed in” announcement has been made. Betting with the bookmaker is tax-free. Deductions are made only if a horse is withdrawn after the betting market has been formed.

Please check the minimum stake accepted by each bookmaker on his display board Some bookmakers do not take sums under £5, especially in the main betting ring, but there will be others who are happy to accept £2 bets. Please tender the correct change when possible.

14.A guide to the horse’s recent form and star rating. Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:

HHHHH Selected to win the race.

HHHHI Good chance of being placed.

HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims

HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope.

HIIII Can be given little or no chance.

15 Jockey’s photo If there is a number next to the name, this indicates that the jockey can claim that amount in weight (lbs) off the stated riding weight

The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability

The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions.

A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances).

The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non-handicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed. Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating.

TODAY’S TOP TIPS

Giselles Izzy had a subsequent winner back in second when winning over 6f at Ayr last month and she must be respected off a 2lb higher mark. That said, preference is for the locally-trained KINDEST NATION. Hugo Palmer’s charge was sporting a ﬁrst-time visor (retained) when scoring with more in hand than the winning margin suggests over 7f at Haydock last week, and a 6lb penalty may not be enough to anchor her. American Rose is also respected.

WIN: KINDEST NATION

EACHWAY: GISELLES IZZY

QETAIFAN showed up well for a long way before fading into ﬁfth late on in a warm Sandown maiden over 7f last month and, dropping back to 6f, he gets the vote to land the spoils for a stable which is operating at a 24 percent strike-rate at this venue this year Sands Of Marra was readily outclassed in the Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood, but he had shown promise prior to that and must enter calculations, along with Mekhled.

WIN: QETAIFAN

EACHWAY: SANDS OF MARRA

There is lots to like about the Hugo Palmer-trained Top Bins on paper and any support in the market for the son of Soldier’s Call should be heeded. That said, BOB MALI gets the vote to hit all the right notes here. Ollie Sangster’s charge justiﬁed strong market support on his debut when running out a game winner over 6f at Ayr last month and, with that experience under his belt, he shades preference. Sir Geoff Morgan is respected now sporting cheekpieces for the ﬁrst time.

WIN: BOB MALI

EACHWAY: TOP BINS

Turned out again quickly after a taking success in a claimer at Wolverhampton on Monday, B ASSOCIATES should be able to handle a 5lb penalty in this company. Thornaby Pearl has been running well at Ripon of late without getting his head in front and he could be set for another bold bid. Others to note include Bibendum, First Company and Oso Rapido.

WIN: B ASSOCIATES

EACHWAY: THORNABY PEARL

A tentative vote goes to JUDGEMENTOFSOLOMON, who has done well since being upped in trip this year and, despite his most recent effort at Southwell being a tad disappointing, he looks capable of bouncing back over further. This stamina test is likely to suit recent Musselburgh scorer Trojan Sun, who must prove himself on soft ground, while Berkshire Sundance returns after almost a year off the track for his in-form connections.

WIN: JUDGEMENTOFSOLOMON

EACHWAY: TROJAN SUN

Trainer Andrew Balding won this contest last year and looks to have another ideal candidate in the shape of WHO’S GLEN, who was runner-up in a deep race at Southwell last time out. The son of Gleneagles looked in need of further on that occasion and he gets that opportunity now, with taking Ripon scorer Oosterpark looking best placed to chase him home. Consistent performer The Crafty Mole is another to bear in mind.

WIN: WHO’S GLEN

EACHWAY: OOSTERPARK

Love Billy Boy took the silver medal home at Ascot last week and is aided by his plum draw in stall one here, so he ought to go close off an unchanged mark. However, the vote goes to PAWS FOR THOUGHT, who is a four-time course winner and ﬁnished a close-up fourth over 6f here on his latest outing. Donald McCain’s six-year-old can continue his ﬁne form and return to winning ways. Mudamer and Mercurial are just two others to consider

WIN: PAWS FOR THOUGHT

EACHWAY: LOVE BILLY BOY

Celtic Warrior was just touched off by a neck when second in this grade at Epsom last month and should remain competitive off a 2lb higher rating. However, AVIEMORE ran a big race when runner-up over 1m4f on Lingﬁeld’s Polytrack off this mark last week and he is taken to go one better now returned to the trip and surface of his sole victory. User Amistoso is another to note in ﬁrst-time cheekpieces.

WIN: AVIEMORE

EACHWAY: CELTIC WARRIOR

THE RACECOURSE

DESCRIPTION

A left-handed circular ﬂat course, turning for most of the way, and ﬁnishing in a short straight which is less than two furlongs in length. The course suits the handy type of horse and a fast start is quite important in sprints. At just over a mile around this is the smallest course in Great Britain.

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a seven furlong handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 49 to 68. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than a lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.

HORSE WELFARE

At all of our race meetings, there are three equine vets on duty They are equipped and positioned to give immediate care to a horse should it require it. This may involve screens being erected around a horse to give the veterinary team privacy to administer treatment and does not necessarily mean the worst. The same applies with doctors and jockeys.

RACE DESCRIPTION

Some races can often prove very popular with owners and trainers and as a result more horses are declared to run than the official safety limit allows for. To avoid horses being denied a run which is obviously disappointing for connections, the British Horseracing Authority has allowed the previous race to be split into two divisions, with each contest carrying identical race conditions.

Oso Rapido ran well at Thirsk on his most recent outing despite not looking particularly well suited by the return to 7f so he’s a player back down in trip, with Hallowed Time and B Associates others to consider

Little between the principals on form but the likeable SWEET WILLIAM has no Kyprios to contend with this time so is fancied to resume winning ways after very good efforts in the Ascot Gold Cup and Goodwood Cup In-form stablemate Gregory could emerge as the main danger, although past winners Trueshan and Coltrane both need consiering too in a fascinating Doncaster Cup

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is an almost two mile handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 51 to 70 Once a horse has qualiﬁed for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below-par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 6lb

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a one mile, six and a half furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds which have been rated from 61 to 80 Like most handicaps on the ﬂat this race is also open to horses that are rated below that particular band. However, all handicaps stipulate a mi nimum weight and no runner can carry less than that, irrespective of how low their rating is. This is often described as ‘running from out of the handicap and is considered a disadvantage.

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a one mile, two and a half furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds which have been rated from 61 to 80 In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than a lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.
